I, like many people, got sick and tired of the constant raising of rates and lack of options so I gave Cox TV and phone the boot! I wish they would offer a medium tiered internet selection, but its either 5, 15, 100 (which I have for $83...overpriced IMO), or 300mbps. If they had a 50mbps option for $15 less I'd be all over it. Out the door I was paying $170 for bundled service which included 300mbps internet, total home phone, and 380+ TV channels, of which I watch, at the MOST, 20 of them. This deal was better than what I had before, but was due to go up $30 a month for the next year. NOT happening. Plus, NEW customers would be paying a good amount less then me. Nothing they "could" do. I've heard bad stories about Cox service, but nothing compared to Centurylink. I've always had a good internet connection with Cox. Wasn't going to risk the (ONLY!) alternative.
I bought an Ooma so that will eventually pay off since the monthly cost is around $4. I hooked up my antenna for TV in the mean time (gotta trouble shoot that since the TV isn't recognizing the antenna). At the moment, I am thinking about Nvidia Shield TV and getting Playstation Vue. Still haven't decided yet. It seems to be the most versatile and can be updated (I think) with newer apps. Plex and Kodi looks attractive.
Since as of right now my bill just went down ~$88, I might just watch OTA TV for a while and surf...make up for future costs. We'll see.
